Dear Heather...
My beautiful girl, gone way too soon! I met you dear niece, when you arrived home from Germany 4 days before my wedding...you had lost your stuffed dog somewhere on the trip...so sad you were! As usual momma was trying to find it for you to ease your pain, but alass...no puppy to be found. Wish I had that puppy now to ease the pain we all feel at your loss. Mom's heart is simply broken, so many memories with our dear Heather Feather! Hope you were greeted by everyone, grand parents, Auntie Collette, uncle Ron, cousin Bryan, everyone who loved you so much. I think of my Heather everyday, you will forever be a piece missing from my world & my heart. Rest easy sweetie, we will see you again, but until then, I will keep my arms wrapped tightly around mom & dear Daunte. We will both hold you close until we see you again! Love to you, Auntie Janine

Heather you were such a radiant presence in every room! Your laugh is one that I will never forget! I’m so thankful that I got to know you and work with you. You were an amazing leader. You knew how to work hard and play hard. Such a fun person to be around. With a heavy heart, I will continue to pray for your family. Until we meet again!

I worked with Heather at Scheels. She was always in a good mood and was never negative despite the stresses that come from working at a retail job. I loved visiting with her and enjoyed her positive vibe and sense of humor. She is gone way to soon. My condolences to her family members and close friends.
